Worried dog owner finds lost elderly pet at a Milwaukee bar: 'He was pretty popular'
A Wisconsin dog owner found her missing pup in an unusual place last week.
Milwaukee resident Jenny Hazard noticed that her 16-year-old Shih Tzu, Bear, disappeared from her backyard last Wednesday evening, according to FOX 6 Milwaukee.
"It was kind of just getting dark," Hazard explained to FOX 6. "I was outside with all three dogs."
"I am looking and where’s Bear?"

Noticing that her backyard's gate was cracked open, Hazard became distraught.
"After about 15 or 20 minutes I was just in tears," the dog owner explained. "Because he’s old, he’s got a heart condition."
"He can’t go far in snow...where could he have gone, right?" she added.

"We get a text. They said, ‘Your dog is down at Finks.’ I’m like, what?" the Milwaukee resident said.

"Great, I am relieved he’s okay – but what’s he doing at a bar?" she added.
Finks Bar is located roughly a mile away from her home, according to FOX 6. The bar's owners believe that Bear was picked up by a group of girls who were bar-hopping and brought him inside.
"They took good care of him, and I guess he was pretty popular," Hazard said.
